Empathy without #accountability gets messy. Accountability without #empathy is ineffective. The best teams master both. This week on The Leadership Foundry #Podcast, Randy and I talk about that sweet spot between empathy, compassion & accountability: youtube.com/watch?v=OYi3qH…

I recently had the pleasure to join a group of professionals at Ulta Beauty to discuss my book. The questions they had for me were insightful, engaging and challenging. If you or your organization select one of my books as focused study, let me know. I would happily join a call!

I had the wonderful opportunity to work with a talented and passionate Intuit leadership team last week in San Diego. The work we did regarding "ways of working" will equip this team with the necessary tools to execute at a high level & also help them support each other.

Strong leadership isn’t about pretending the year was perfect. It’s about telling the truth — naming what was hard, what was learned, and what still needs work — while reminding people there is a future worth moving toward. #Leadership #Reflection #NewYear

Your purpose is already written into your story. When asked the question “what does the world need more of?” or “what is a need in the world that is unmet?” you’re going to answer that question differently than anyone else. #purpose #knowyourwhy #career

A leader’s role is to remind the team why we do what we do and why we’re here. As we move through the last week of January, this is a great moment to pause and realign—to reconnect your team to their purpose and your vision for the year. #leadership youtube.com/watch?v=QXZjLt…
